finicky fish are never the captains fault

4hr Shark Trip- AM on July 3, 2024

the day started off with a pretty quick bite. nice 7 ish footer was caught. the day slowed down after that, a lot of short strikes caused a lot of missed fish. We appreciate the amount of effort that was put in. not much the captain can do about fish being finicky. He did his absolute best to get us on the fish and held great conversation. would definitely recommend. Beautiful day on the water as well.

Special 3 hour trip for Daniel Miller on August 27, 2024

Capt Beau did a great job for our family (several adults and kids). We caught some nice flounder and had a good time. Boat was nice and had all the amenities stated. Capt was accommodating and I highly recommend him.
